Euporus is a genus of beetles belonging to the large subfamily Cerambycinae in the family of longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae). [1]
Medium-sized, slender and long-legged, usually shiny and metallic longhorn beetle. The head is slightly snout-shaped and elongated. The antennae are usually longer than the body, and rather thin. The pronotum is rounded without teeth on the sides. The coverts are almost evenly wide. The hind legs are particularly long, the thighs thickened at the tip.
The larvae develop in the wood of deciduous trees.
The genus is widespread in Africa.
